Had a nice chat with Paul a bit earlier today. He and the team have decided to have one more rest day tomorrow, before heading up to Camp 2 on Thursday and then up to Camp 3 via the Lhotse Face, most probably on Saturday. Thursday will be a long day so they'll rest Friday, to get ready for the higher climb over the weekend.
Camp 1 - 5900 meters
Camp 2 - 6500 meters
Camp 3 - 7200 meters (23,700 feet)

He'll then return to Base Camp on Sunday/Monday. I won't have any contact with him until he's back down, so I'll update again as soon as I hear from him.
He sounds very well, strong and positive and he's looking forward to getting back up there. We're hoping that if he acclimatises well with this second cycle, that the next time he goes back up, it will be to summit Mount Everest!
Thank you for your continued support.
Paul and Natalie
